File not found, but path is ok...
I get a 'File not found e:\Delphi6\lib\hyperstr.pa
I placed Hyperstr.dcu (I dont have the .pas) in \lib, and included lib in both library path and browsing path. What's the deal with the .pas? I've done this in Delphi5 and it works. Should work in Delphi6 too, shouldnt it? Why does it insist on having the .pas file?
Thanks in advance

They dont have a D6 version (yet)... Da##, I thought the dcu's where compatible :-(
sorry to say,
but the dcu's are
not version compatible,
also not minor compatible
a d3-dcu will not work with d3.02

What you COULD do is to take that dcu's functionality and compile it (in the version of Delphi that it is designed for) into a DLL which you could then call from the Delphi 6 application. Not the prettiest solution, but it works.
Good luck!!

You are right, not very pretty at all :p I can buy the source for $59, I might do that instead.
The good thing about having the source is that you'll never have this problem again.<g>
Good luck!!
Good luck!!
or just other fast string libraries, such as FastStrings from www.stuckindoors.com (comes with full source)
check out Madshi's madStrings unit too (from the madBasic package, if I'm not mistaken?) at www.madshi.net
